EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative poster from circa 1917 calls for the courageous and determined spirit of women to join the Women's Land Army during World War I. The image captures a land girl, her face set with determination, as she tenderly feeds a horse and its foal. The caption above reads, "National Service - Women Wanted! Apply for Enrolment Forms at your Nearest Post Office or Employment Exchange." The Women's Land Army was formed in response to the labor shortage caused by the war, which left many farms and agricultural lands in need of workers. Women, many of whom were inspired by the suffragette movement and the fight for women's rights and suffrage, answered the call to serve their country and support the war effort. The poster's use of the term "National Service" highlights the importance of the Women's Land Army's contribution to the war effort, positioning it alongside the more widely known military services. The image of a woman caring for a horse and foal emphasizes the nurturing and life-giving role women played in the war effort, as well as their strength and resilience. The Women's Land Army was a significant part of the war effort, with over 80,000 women serving by the end of the war. Their work was vital to the production of food and other essential supplies, allowing the military to focus on the front lines. This poster is a powerful reminder of the important role women played during this period of history and the impact they had on shaping the future of women's rights and opportunities.
